The Akshardham festival was on. Every morning Swamishri performed his morning puja on the assembly stage. There after he would return to his residence by car. Thousands of devotes would stand on both sides of the road to have Swamishri’s darshan.

Today, while Swamishri was proceeding by car he saw an old devotee, Govindbhai of Rojid village (near Sarangpur). [Decades ago Swamishri had gone to Rojid for donations to buy paint for Sarangpur Mandir. At that time he had slept the night on a bullock cart at Govindbhai’s place.] Swamishri had his car stopped and beckoned Govindbhai towards him. Swamishri blessed him and gave him advice on his social problems.

Despite the magnitude of the festival and hectic schedules Swamishri never forgets an ordinary devotee from a rural region.
